The coordinates of the vertices of △PQR are P(1, 4) , Q(2, 2) , and R(−2, 1) . The coordinates of the vertices of △P′Q′R′ are P′(−1, 4) , Q′(−2, 2) , and R′(2, 1) .


Which statement correctly describes the relationship between △PQR and △P′Q′R′ ?

A) △PQR is congruent to △P′Q′R′ because you can map △PQR to △P′Q′R′ using a reflection across the x-axis, which is a rigid motion.

B) △PQR is congruent to △P′Q′R′ because you can map △PQR to △P′Q′R′ using a reflection across the y-axis, which is a rigid motion.

C) △PQR is congruent to △P′Q′R′ because you can map △PQR to △P′Q′R′ using a translation 2 units to the left, which is a rigid motion.

D) △PQR is not congruent to △P′Q′R′ because there is no sequence of rigid motions that maps △PQR to △P′Q′R′ .
